That is excellent news!!!
I was just thinking about you guys last night and was going to post for update.

I love happy endings....or should I say new beginnings!

ArkAangel, you should be proud for the lengths you went to help this dog and for not giving into mis-interpreted "aggression". To think this boy had a couple of days b/c a vet ($$$) agreed and rescue had deemed the dog unfit for re-homing.

Cheers to you!

Thank you for the wonderful update! Aww, what a happy boy - I'm so glad you put that extra effort in to help this guy. Congratulations to Huntz and his new family, and kudos to yours, and those who helped!

I am happy to announce that Huntz has been successfully re-homed!!

His transition was very smooth and he settled in very well with his new family.

Thanks for all your help!

Yeah!

Agree with GatorBytes and that's why I always say it's best to get the dog evaluated by a trainer knowledgeable with the breed and working dogs.

Having spent some time now around working dogs I've learned there's a big difference between the average pet rescue/trainers and those that know and work with these dogs day in and day out.

Please do keep us posted.

And three cheers for mislesleedavis

So glad I made one final push for him, its Gods grace i tell you!

thanks to your perseverance and being open to find the right help instead of settling on one rescue's assessment and one Veterinarian concurring that he should be PTS.

Thanks for all the support. Huntz is doing great, the juggling of dogs has gotten a little less stressful and we just had my boy Ando neutered to help the situation. Also put up a temp fence to seperate the back from the side yard so Huntz can hang out in the back when were away and my 2 can still use the side to do their business.

I drove about 2 hours to have Huntz assessed in the absolute worst weather I have EVER driven in, and I pretty much drove for a living for 5 years. I ended up getting rear ended on the way there, thankfully noone was hurt and I was able to continue to the assessment, just a little late.
